[Mark17]

Psst... There's only 16 chapters in Mark... ;-)

Yes I know. I have had to answer that question before. It is not based on the Gospel of Mark. My real name is Mark. About the number, I wanted to use was 7, because that was the number I wore when I played high school ice hockey. At that time, 7 was already taken here, so I just used 17, but I tried 7 first.

I figured there was an explanation not based on the Koine.. ;-) (Did you try -7 or _7? Sometimes that works - file the info away for future reference in case you come up against something like that again.)

And since Memorial Day is coming up, and I haven't talked with you before and the possibility that our paths might not cross again in this forum is great, thanks for serving.

I've often thought about basing a sermon on a nonexistent text just to see if anyone is awake. You know, like from 3 John chapter 2... ;-)
